Extrusion Conference 2015: Call for Papers

Plastics Technology is bringing the world of extrusion together in one place, at one time, at The Extrusion 2015 Conference. During this unique two-day event, business owners, plant managers, process engineers and manufacturing personnel will be brought up to speed on technology developments impacting all types of extrusion operations. The event will take place Nov. 2-3 at the Omni Charlotte Hotel, Charlotte, N.C.

Each day will consist of morning presentations of interest to extrusion processors in general. These will include, but are not limited to, presentations on issues such as screw design; new materials and additives; high-speed extrusion; energy efficiency; changeovers; purging; controls; foaming; and important auxiliary equipment such as conveying, blending, filtration and much more.

In the afternoon of each day there will be three concurrent sessions that drill down to the specific process: Film/Sheet; Pipe/Profile/Tubing; and Compounding.
